kushiel's plebian, part 3
I have devised a drinking game for the second book, Kushiel's Chosen, which I am halfway through (the book, that is, not the drinking). Here it goes:
- Any use of the contractions "'tis" or "'twas" -- take a drink.
- Any time Joscelin's vambraces flash -- take a drink.
- Any time Joscelin's face gets "white lines of rage" -- take a drink.
- Any time "Naamah's pearl" is mentioned -- take two drinks.
- Any time Joscelin and Phèdre get it on -- finish the bottle
...which is not to say I am not enjoying the book. I am, m'dears, I am.
I also note the author does not allow fanfiction. This is a shame, as I was going to devise another game, guessing at how often the fans write about Joscelin/Delaunay, Joscelin/Alcuin, Joscelin/Alcuin/Phèdre, Phèdre/"Phèdre's Boys" and, of course, Joscelin/Joscelin.
